Wireless card constant spikes to 1000+ms and dropping out

[vReneigh]

Hey so I've had a D-link usb wireless adapter for about 3 years now and the whole time every 10seconds or so it would randomly spike to 1000ms, Which was incredibly annoying for gaming but I lived with it,

Well now that adapter has died and I've purchased a TP-LINK AC1300 Wireless Dual Bands USB Adapter to replace it, Except it's even worse, Not only does it constantly spike my ping but it constantly just drops connection to the internet completely every few seconds, which means now I can't even have a conversation on Skype.

I'm really lost on what is causing this because it has happened across 2 different houses, 2 different adapters and from ADSL to Fibre, It doesn't do this on any other wireless device I own so I'm lost.

Any help would be appreciated so much <3

Run pathping and tracert from your computer.

Determine where the packets are being delayed.

You did not mention the router: make and model? Age?

What is the host device: laptop, desktop? Is that the only device affected?

Windows 10? Try running the troubleshooters.

Consider your location: maybe there is some local interference via a neighbor, industry, who knows.....

More information is needed.

Well I can't really tracert now since I have to tether from my phone (which is working fine but isn't an ideal solution)

Model Number F@st 5355, about 9 months old, but this happened on the last router (not sure what model number) at our old house.

Desktop, Yes it's the only device with this problem.

Yeah Windows 10, None of the troubleshooters have seemed to do much of anything

We're a brand new house, No neighbors at all it's empty plots on both sides, Happened at our last house too.

Try using a USB extension cable to lift the USB wireless adapter up and away the computer.

Try other USB ports if available: motherboard, PCIe, etc..

Look at any other electronics that have remained "common". Turn them all off and start them up again one at a time. Wait a few minutes between each start as necessary to be sure that the spikes are not happening. You may find that one particular device is the reason,
